I have seen two road movies of "A Man and a Boy", the first is "Perfect World" and the second is "Kijiro's Summer". The former is to leave the mother, the latter is to find the mother; the former is a smart man, the latter is a low-minded man; but it is a boy's growth experience, Philip and Zhengnan have found fatherly love, and this fatherly love is reflected in Zhengnan's green leaf suit It is also reflected in Philip's ghost mask, and the boy also fulfills the role of a man's father during the journey.
The entire film lacks realistic female characters, and parts of the plot belong only to men. Whether it was Kikujiro taking a man to bet on horses, or pretending to be a blind man to hitch a ride, playing a wooden man, fishing and other games, the female audience seemed to be mentally retarded. In fact, the happiness of a man is sometimes as simple as that. For example, he is one step away from the trash can but insists on "shooting" the paper ball into the bin, picking it up after a failure, until it succeeds.
The movie transforms Zhengnan's mother into the role of an angel to preserve his mother's position in Zhengnan's mind; not only Zhengnan, but every boy, or every man needs to have the role of an angel in his heart, so that there is only summer in childhood and the world is perfect .
As the royal music producer of Studio Ghibli, Shi Jiurang has gentle and pure music. When you close your eyes, the music in the play once made people feel that the movie is like Hayao Miyazaki's cartoon. The most impressive "Summer" has a warm melody. , The feeling of sunshine evokes memories of childhood summer.
